Cabaretito Fusión

Juárez Fodor's Choice

This little cabaret offers entertainment six nights per week, ranging from drag shows and burlesque to exotic dancers and impersonators. There’s nothing dull about a night at Cabaretito, and it’s a welcoming space for all. Bottle service is available, and you'll find plenty of alcohol to lower your inhibitions and fit in with the rollicking crowd eager for a good time.

Hanky Panky Cocktail Bar

Juárez Fodor's Choice
If you’re looking for it, you’ll eventually find it, but you won’t find it if you aren’t looking for it. With a strict, secret location, Hanky Panky is one of Mexico City’s few Prohibition-era-style speakeasies. Award-winning mixologists come and go from here to highlight their specialties abroad, while always bringing something back with them. Reservations are required, and when you arrive, you’ll have to ask around (as in up and down the block) in order to find the entrance—it's part of the charm. Inside is dark, with leather booths and a 10-seat bar. Many cocktails are based on Mexican mixology magic, though there’s plenty of international flavors as well; you won't be disappointed with something spicy.

Parker & Lenox

Juárez Fodor's Choice
First you meet Parker, a classy diner with windowside black leather booths and an exquisite wooden bar serving up gourmet pub fare. Then, at night, you meet Lenox, a tucked away, acoustically ideal live music venue with green leather booths and not a bad seat in the house. With live music throughout the week, including international acts and local tributes (think Quentin Tarantino night featuring your favorite soundtracks), locals love Lenox for its speakeasy vibe and chilled-out jazz club ambience.

Baby

Juárez
Drawing a pretty gender-diverse crowd of mostly under-thirtysomethings, this wildly popular LGBTQ club offers up a varied menu of dance genres—anything from reggaeton to electronic. If you need a break from the pulsing crowds and intensely pink lighting within, head to the pleasant side patio. It's in Zona Rosa, but a few blocks east of the Calle Amberes bar strip.

Bar Milán

Juárez

The young and the hip favor this bar, a 10-minute walk northeast of Zona Rosa. Upon entering, you need to change pesos into milagros (miracles), which are notes necessary to buy drinks throughout the night. The trick is to remember to change them back before last call.

Calle Genova

Juárez

Closed off for pedestrians and lined with bars, this street is basically one long pub crawl, spanning several blocks and all kinds of different establishments. You’ll be approached with menus by the hype people for various bars as you walk; feel free to take a quick look and move on to the next option if a place doesn't interest you (they're used to it). La Terraza and Bukowski's Bar are particularly good for people-watching and drinks, although you're better off looking elsewhere for dining.

El Scary Witches Bar

La Zona Rosa
A nod to international counterculture, with a special appreciation for everything goth, this bar is purposely dark and always bumping out industrial, metal, and rock tunes into the street. It’s tight quarters and slightly confined, but you'll feel like you’re part of a special, all-black-wearing club when you enter. Find a spot to squeeze in and wait for your server to come by with a menu that includes wine, mezcal, an impressive variety of international and artisanal Mexican beers, and cocktails served in skull-shape mugs.

Nicho Bears & Bar

Juárez

Zona Rosa's prime hangout for bearish gay guys and their admirers actually draws a pretty varied crowd. It acts as a generally more mature alternative to the more raucous crowds you'll find in many of the bars around the corner on Calle Amberes. It's open only Thursday through Saturday night.

Londres 182, Mexico City, 06600, Mexico

Tokyo Music Bar

Cuauhtémoc
Across the hallway from ultrahip restaurant Emilia, this bar has a speakeasy vibe, phenomenal music, and an inventive cocktail list, including nonalcoholic options. They keep things super chill with vinyl records lining green marble-faced walls, and a DJ spins everything from current to old-school R&B hits.
